He also admitted feeling hurt because he had considered the women friends. But that and his failed past relationships didn't stop him from searching for more love, and that resulted in his fifth wife.
His relationship with Wanda Miller, a former restaurant hostess, brought a different challenge. She was 28 years younger, and her parents were two years younger than Kenny. They were not immediately delighted about the match.
Kenny recalled receiving a call in which they made their objections very clear. He understood their concerns and promised to be honest with both them and their daughter. Over time, the relationship changed enough that he described Wanda's parents as his best friends.
